My mom filled me in about that side of his life more than he ever did. To him that was just part his life challenge he neve brags or tells me he had nothing, to me he seems like a man who had everything. Real Men are unstoppable.

    Congratulations Steven 🎉 You managed to produce the BEST ‘Dame Dash’ interview EVER! Honestly, you managed to dissect Dame down to a point that I’ve never seen ANYBODY do before. It’s evident that Dame Dash is thick-skinned and very opinionated but thanks to you, I’ve finally seen a vulnerable side to Dame for the FIRST time.
    His interview on Drink Champs was my favourite but now it’s my 2nd favourite. You absolutely smashed it. This was pure execution.

But, Dame is the one who discovered me on the streets of Philly and got me started in music with Livin in the City. Noone really knew me in music until California Love with Pac and Dre. My 5 best songs are probably Cali Love is what I wanted to call it but Dre thought California Love would be better for money and record sales. 2. Real Mf Gs with easy e 3. Livin in the City 4.

Don’t let this fool y’all dame is not happy that’s why he comes off rude or not fully happy. I don’t like people like him he’s an asshole I see why nobody stuck around because he wants to be the boss of everything that’s why rockafella died. Jayz knew he was a better business man that’s why he wanted to get away from Dame. Dame is bad for business. He has a shitty attitude and he doesn’t see things from other people perspective.

Drug dealers in the 80's 90's actually despised street rappers for documenting the game on record, it never aligned with their core principles like moving in silence. Frank Lucas was a known snitch and Bumpy did 10 years in the can. Only rappers want to be like those names mentioned.

    The way life challenged him from the loss of his mother, losing Aaliyah, losing a child, ending off a multimillion business, betrayal in friendships, businesses and being demonize/crucified by the industry and media etc. Seeing him still standing tall indicates that this man soul is unbreakable!!! I love the fact that he is still in love with LIFE!!! He still has dreams and living his best life regarding what people say!!! He went through almost every worse case scenario that life can offer and he is still here. He exposed the music industry and calling people out by their name in public!!! This man is fearless and bold!!! He is not perfect, but his flaws is what makes him honorable. He is a walking testimony of God’s strength!!!

      3. Everything that goes against his honor(codes) morals, principles, divinity, integrity and sovereignty!!! And also his ancestral codes!!!
      4. By obeying and agreeing with the industry agendas, protocols and standards to deceive, distract, infiltrate, and manipulate the minds and souls of the masses.
      5. By giving up his human rights and basis needs. And trade them in for privileges like money, fame, entertainment, comfort and conveniences.
      6. By going against his own Trinity( Mind, Body and Soul)
      Which will leave you fragmented, scattered, broken and disconnected from Source and Self!!!

      The fact you even stated that the body and soul are the same is not even correct.
      Your body is temporarily!!! Your soul is infinite!!! You can’t take your body when you die!!!
      Your soul continues existing after your body is dead.
      Come on now!!! Use your common sense!!!
      If you compromise in one area of the Trinity(mind-body-soul) you fall victim period!!! Everything is connected!!! See it as a circle ⭕️. If there is a break aka a disconnect in the circle itself the energy can’t flow!!! It stops!!!

    I love everything about Dame, but I have to really acknowledge Steven for challenging Dame and not letting himself be intimidated by him. A person with such a strong character can be difficult to interview, but Steven’s continuous curiosity, the way he maintains his goal of getting to know Dame despite Dame not always letting him too close is admirable and I think why Dame opens up and it becomes a very personal interview.
    In the beginning you sense that Dame is very much used to wearing the boss hat and being the one to set the tone, and doesn’t seem like the most inviting person always. But I really think that Steven manages to disarm him with his gentle and sincere passion and curiosity for wanting to get to know someones values and beliefs on a deeper level.

    It’s easy to be misconstrued as cocky and arrogant when your humility is being threatened by the doubt of others. When you humbly tell somebody that you can do something and that person sternly doubts and underestimate you it’s hard not to stick your tongue out at him, Michael Jordan style, after an achievement and accomplishment.

      Hello
      Something I have been in search for quite sometime is a connection with somebody that goes beyond vanity. It's very hard to do in this day and age. People can be, somewhat very superficial.
      On my quest to achieve this I have learnt a lot about human nature. It seems to me that those who are not given traits such as beauty or being wealthy are some of the nicest, kindest and generous people.
      While the "gorgeous" and well off seem to be the most arrogant and greedy people out there. Of course that's not to say there aren't beautiful kind people out there.
      I've been in the process of change for a while now and I have made some decent changes but don't you just hate it when people can't let go of your past mistakes.
      I saw your profile and it intrigued me. I wanted to learn more about who you are and what type of path you would like on in life.

    Building wealth involves developing good habits like regularly putting money away in intervals for solid investments. Financial management is a crucial topic that most tend to shy away from, and ends up haunting them in the near future. Putting our time and effort in activities and investments that will yield a profitable return in the future is what we should be aiming for. Success depends on the actions or steps you take to achieve it. "You're not going to remember those expensive shoes you bought ten years ago, but you will remember every single morning when you look at your bank account that extra 0 in there. I promise, that's going to be way more fun to look at everyday", I pray that anyone who reads this will be successful in life too 🙏🙏🙏

    As a black American, I have always been a fan of Dame Dash. I often called him "The Harriet Tubman of Hip Hop." However, it is one thing that he often discredits and that is education. You do not have to spend years and go into debt to educate yourself. There are plenty of certifications you can obtain to acquire the knowledge required to succeed. One of them are the certifications offered by the International Business Training Association (IBTA). I know a young black business doctor. Dr. Corbin Smith. He is an Authorized Training Partner for this organization. He helped me receive one of these certifications and it was at a fraction of the cost and time of a college. Also, the certifications are backed by the United States Department of Labor, so they have validity.

    I understand the betrayal Dame feels. I really do, he learned the person he believed in, encouraged, supported, stood by ultimately didn’t have his best interest at heart ( when Dame had Jay best interest) he ultimately showed Dame how he really felt about their friendship that’s why you don’t use the word friendship, sis, bro lightly.

    I’m new to your channel and put off watching this interview for a few days now due to it’s length. I’m so glad I tuned in to this exceptional interview with Mr Dash. He’s quite a controversial character and when I last tuned in to him was on Growing Up Hip Hop where his strict and uncompromising treatment of his children often left me frustrated. I now have a greater respect for this man having gained true insight into him as a person. And respect to you for your level of professionalism in conducting an interview which clearly put Dame at ease👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

  • @ErinDeNis

    I love what Dame said about an inability to focus. I know a lot of really seriously successful people who have a hard time focusing. They can focus on whatever they are focused on that day. It takes an excellent administrative genius, or a few, that can help them execute. My cousin owns one of the fastest growing real estate brokerages in the state of Ohio. She comes up with an idea a minute, she is not organized at all, and she is extremely fired about random things. But she understands real estate, money, influence, and rapport on a high level. She drives her admin assistant nuts. But they create amazing things related to branding, training, movements, and events. It’s incredible to watch them work.
    I also adore how Dame was able to turn the table and see the interviewer and his conundrum. He chose to help him unpack his own business issue, identify with him, and offer his advice. He can tune in to another person and be present with them. It’s not just about him. When he says it’s about the culture, he literally about the culture.
    Another thing. Notice how calm and cool Dame was in this interview. It’s because the interviewer listened, was respectful and didn’t make passive aggressive or ignorant statements to him. When Dame cuts up in an interview, it’s because the interviewer said something passive aggressive or patronizing, even if they didn’t know that what they were saying was tactless.

    36:27 they do, just depends where you’re getting your education at. That’s the part that sucks, that it isn’t widely known knowledge, but my high school had a class called Consumer Math; it was a junior/senior year elective. It taught you everything you mentioned and then some. We learned how to budget, balance, all about APR’s, credit lines/scores, learned about doing taxes ourselves and opening businesses and how Gary Barbera was an alumni of our school and took his (my teacher’s) class before graduating and now has one of the most successful car dealerships in Philadelphia. The knowledge is out there, what it needs to be is a class in every school. Not just private schools.
